For seeing a file: Joe Average's computer security is... bad. A simple and very common problem.

For the actual info: We are talking about social DRM. This means you embed significant personal information in a clearly visible way. Serials and the like aren't really different from normal DRM, other than the keys/serials being centrally stored/processed/associated.
